I've decided to use the modified rating scale for all my game ratings. This is the one I liked:

10: Outstanding game. One of my all-time personal favorites.9: Excellent game. Always a pleasure to play. Shines under most circumstances.8: Very good game. Rarely disappoints me. High on my request/recommend list.7: Good game. Usually willing to play. I might even request or recommend it.6: OK game. Some fun or challenge at least. Enjoyable in the right circumstances.5: Average game. I'm indifferent, but may be willing to play.4: Below average game. I avoid playing and would need to be persuaded.3: Poor game. Will strongly resist playing.2: Very poor game. I refuse to play this.1: Dead game. Seriously negative entertainment value. Black Hole of Fun.

I find this more useful than the old scale. So if you're looking at my ratings keep this in mind.
